Shoot the Light In-Field Program at the St. Augustine Alligator Farm

Join Chas Glatzer in the field as he shares the thought process and techniques behind making images in the field. Preparedness is the key to efficiency and proficiency is the way to better images. The faster you can assess the conditions as presented and employ the tools and techniques necessary to render the image as desired, the more likely you are to accomplish your goal. There are four things paramount to consistently producing successful imagery: knowing the fundamentals, familiarity with your equipment, pre-visualization, and preparedness.
